==Trivia==
* For some reason, the Kimono girls were given different but still Japanese names in the English versions. The French<!-- and Italian--> localization also followed suit, but were renamed to their original Japanese names in Generation IV with the exception of Koume, who was referred to as Umeko instead.
* In the French and German localizations of {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the name Keiko was used for different Kimono Girls.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} versions, when the Kimono Girls are summoning the legendary Pokémon, they dance clockwise for Ho-Oh and counter-clockwise for Lugia.
* [[Bill]]'s mother was once a Kimono Girl, according to {{tc|Poké Maniac}} Brent, who reveals trivia about Bill via [[Pokégear]].
* Both of the anime episodes which featured all of the Kimono Sisters had [[Masaaki Iwane]] as animation director.
* In the anime episode ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', the four elder sisters' fans match the elemental themes of their Pokémon.
* In the anime, all of the Kimono Sisters except for Sakura have their Eeveelutions in an [[Apricorn]] Ball; in the games, these, along with the {{ball|Safari}} and the {{ball|Sport}}, are the only Poké Balls that an Eeveelution cannot be legitimately caught in.
